I bought a couple of iPod socks from eBay. :-)

So what are you all using to get DVD's onto iPod/phone, then?

I do already own Xilisoft's DVD to DivX Converter 4 (xp) - should I just get an app to convert DivX to iPod, or is there an app that'll do it in one step, that doesn't cost too much?

I haven't tried it yet but ISTR that Handbrake has a setting for this.

edit: link here says it works but I'd probably try to trim the size down a bit.

Think I was using Videora when I was on Windows. Or I might've used that generic freeware (OSS I think) video converter, but for the life of me I can't remember the name of it...

Just sold my Touch. Goes towards what I paid for the iPhone :)

Nope, I was wrong, I was thinking of VisualHub... which is a Mac app.

Videora then...

I'm very interested in picking up an iPhone but there's one thing causing me concern. When used with another sim (such as one on a web n walk t-mob contract), will phone features such as 'locate me' work?.
Anyone actually running a t-mob sim card in their phone?

It works fine with a Vodafone sim, so I'd say yes, it will work.

What about Visual Voice Mail? That was the thing that Apple said they
needed network support to implement.
